The reality of dementia in lockdown

The impact of coronavirus has been shattering for families affected by dementia. Urgent action must be taken to better protect people ahead of the winter.

Dedicate a message to Government to make them address the reality of lockdown for people affected by dementia.

I need proper contact with my mum, I was her carer until she had to go into a care home, we needed her to be safe at night and it was great before lock down because I still took her out everyday and her life was still the same expect she felt more secure. Then lock down happened and she hasn't been out with me from March, she is still well cared for but she dosnt understand why her children cannot get in to see her, she thinks she's abandoned, she has lost four stone in weight
